WIN WHOOGA UGG BOOTS

I never thought I'd be one to post about Ugg boots, but Whooga Boots has me converted. Gone are my previous connotations of the famous style, I've been reminded of their cute and cosy image. When people think of genuine Uggs, the Ugg boot brand is probably the first to spring to mind, but according to a customer review, the 'grade of the sheepskin lining' in a pair of Whoogas is better than in Uggs. We're coming into winter now so ofcourse that means rain, rain and more rain, but Top Stylista has recommended Whooga's, saying 'within half an hour my Whooga boots had returned to their original chestnut colour and looked as good as new'. Whoogas also come in many other colours including black, violet, pink, sand and grey. The boots are hand-crafted, a long way away from the Primark Uggs/Puggs which are mass-produced, bad quality and just give the boots a bad name.

What I also find impressive is the technology of the merino sheepskin, do you know many other shoes which cool your feet in summer and warm them in winter?
My personal favourites? The Elegance boots in sand or chestnut.

The quality is in the premium price- approx £100 per pair, but if you win the competition you'll get a pair FREE!
If you're finding your feet are lusting after a pair of Whoogas, you might be lucky, Whooga boots are running an international competition drawing monthly winners-



Good luck!

This is a denim mini skirt from moto at TOPSHOP (the denim section of Topshop.) Has been worn a few times but is in excellent condition.
The denim is a beautiful blue colour, stonewashed so the colour varies nicely. The hem of the skirt was designed to be frayed so it looks like worn, vintage denim. They can be snipped off easily if you prefer the skirt without this detail.

There are 4 buttons running down the front of the skirt, these can be undone to take off/do up the skirt.
